Celebrities have edge over genuine social workers – Salman Khan

salman khan bodyguard 200x263 Salman Khan, who runs charity organisation Being Human for underprivileged people, feels that because of media coverage movie stars are likely to have an edge over others who sincerely work toward the betterment of society. And he isn't too happy about it.

“We (celebrities) have an edge because we're there on every TV and each screen, good films, bad films, stuff like what we do in restaurants…So, we're there everywhere and now we have a bonus over people who find themselves really great people, and feature not been given the coverage on account of TRP ratings,” the 46-year-old said here.

“It sucks because in case you are doing that sort of (social) work, and no-one knows about you, it’s weird,” he added.

Salman keeps doing his bit as a socially concerned citizen. He sells his paintings, and the proceeds are used for the welfare of the underprivileged.

Last seen in “Bodyguard,” Salman will soon be seen sharing screen space with ex-flame Katrina Kaif in “Ek Tha Tiger.” – IANS
